Don't have anything new to add, but I agree that there's nothing wrong with having a physical attraction to someone older, or to a friend's father. Was is just a physical thing or is there more about him that makes you feel so drawn to him. Sometimes there's other stuff going on underneath. But sometimes it's just a good-looking man and a want for something that feels good immediately.
I agree with LL about finding the whole "crush" thing encouraging. For years after I wasn't able to feel anything but fear. Before that, was years of depression-numb -- nothingness. Feeling something positive like that again, let me know I was alive.
